Gentle readers, if you are like me, you have friends and family in other (warmer) states who are always asking “what is going on with that senate thing?”, which often leads to “it’s not over YET?!” We who have been living this state of limbo for months on end likely know the details and the numbers inside out. But here is a succinct little article by our friend Paul Begala that you can forward to your friends them to keep them in the loop. Enjoy!

I certainly agree that Norm needs to give it up, but I kinda wanted to punch Paul Begala in the face after reading this article.
Paul Begala…BARF!!!
Childish responses are all that’s left when the facts aren’t on your side.
Cman: I’d have that checked out. You might have gotten e. coli or c. difficile from all the teabagging you did.
You shouldn’t belittle C-Man lojasmo. He just found out during the last six weeks that there were huge deficits, expansions of government, and taxes. I am sure if he knew that W. expanded government more than any president since FDR he would have had a tea party against W as well. It’s not Cman’s fault that no one knew about deficits until Obama came into office.
GENTLEMEN PLEASE. Had I wanted you to fight, I would have given you a kiddie pool full of jello.
Ewww, Megan, there’s an image I didn’t need.
